Shine Sweet Soul




"Let your presence light new light
in the hearts of people."
Mother Teresa 


Connection with others takes creativity during these days of interrupted schedules.  Once we may have shared a hug or a simple hello, but we are now hidden behind our masks. It is challenging to feel united.  The amazing thing, however, is the ability to use our eyes to reflect the light within our soul.

As we walk, looking down contributes to avoidance; whereas, gazing up opens an awareness of our surroundings.  Look into the eyes of others.  Start small, with children.  Sinking into the innocent eyes, we immediately feel a common source.  Catching eyes filled with anxiety can receive our own eyes of projecting kindness to uplift and calm.

Do we truly see others in our life or are we just grazing in the field?  The nod of our head offers recognition and the deliberate intention of our eyes caring.  The light we kindle in our heart shines out into the darkness of others and assists us on our own path. Shine sweet soul, shine!
